Okay, I have NO IDEA what I'd be looking for, or even where to begin to look
for something like this? Is there a website I cn check out, or company I
should call? I'd prefer not to spend TOO much on this, as it's going to be
just a crash & burn system to teach myself more unix, but would definitely
like to get it up and running again.
Thanks!
